Enabling 802.1X Key Transmission

The following command enables or disables the transmission of key information to the supplicant (client) in EAPoL key messages, after authentication:

set dot1x key-tx {enable disable}

Key transmission is enabled by default.

The WSS switch sends EAPoL key messages after successfully authenticating the supplicant (client) and receiving authorization attributes for the client. If the client is using dynamic WEP, the EAPoL Key messages are sent immedi- ately after authorization.

Type the following command to reenable key transmission:

23x0# set dot1x key-tx enable

success: dot1x key transmission enabled.
